You can execute tests and record their results, even when there
is no test script associated with the test case. Test execution is based entirely
on the content of the test case itself. This situation is common in certain
types of testing, such as system verification testing.
To
run a test without a test script:
- Create a test case.
- Describe the test case as fully as possible. For example,
you can:
- Describe the test case in the Summary and Test Case Design sections
- Add Requirements and Expected Results
- Add Pre-Conditions and Post-Conditions
- Attach external documents
- Optionally, generate test execution records that
define the execution environments for the test case.
- Run the test execution records or
run the test case.
- When the test run completes, view the execution results.
